Expressions for the calculation of ductility index for concrete girders with different ratios of prestressed and classical reinforcement were proposed using load-displacement, load-strain and load-curvature relation. The results of previous experimental static tests of several large-scale concrete girders with different ratio of prestressed and classical reinforcement are briefly presented. Using the proposed expressions, various ductility index of tested girders were calculated and discussed. It was concluded that the ductility of girders decreases approximately linearly by increasing the degree of prestressing. The study presents an expression for the calculation of the average ductility index of classical and prestressed reinforced concrete girders, which are similar to the analysed experimental test girders.

Fatigue life evaluation of welded structures in a range of high cycles is one of the most difficult problems since extremely small plastic deformation and damage occur during the loading cycles. Moreover, it is very difficult to identify the strong non-linearities of welding, inducing residual stress. In this paper, numerical fatigue test method for welded structures was developed using continuum damage mechanics with inherent strain. Recently, continuum damage mechanics, which can simulate both crack initiation at the micro-scale level and crack propagation at the meso-scale level, has been adopted in the fracture related problem. In order to consider the residual stresses in the welded strictures, damage calculation in conjunction with welding, inducing inherent strain, was proposed. The numerical results obtained from the damage calculation were compared to experimental results.

In this research, on-line model for prediction of effective strain distribution hi strip on finishing mill process is prescribed. It has been developed using several selected non-dimensional parameters and previously made average effective strain model via series of finite element process simulations, $\Delta$$\varepsilon$ was introduced to describe the effective strain distribution in strip. To confirm adequate non-dimensional variables uniqueness test was done. And to decide the order of polynomial in on-line model equation tendency test for each variables was done. The prediction accuracy of the proposed model is examined through comparison with finite element calculation results.

This paper proposes a simplified elastic-plastic analysis procedure using the penalty factors presented in the Code Case N-779 for strain-based fatigue assessment of nuclear safety class 1 components under severe seismic loads such as safety shutdown earthquake and beyond design-basis earthquake. First, a simplified elastic-plastic analysis procedure for strain-based fatigue assessment of nuclear safety class 1 components under the severe seismic loads was proposed based on the analysis result for the simplified elastic-plastic analysis procedure in the Code Case N-779 and the stress categories corresponding to normal operation and seismic loads. Second, total strain amplitude was calculated directly by performing finite element cyclic elastic-plastic seismic analysis for a hot leg nozzle in pressurizer surge line subject to combined loading including deadweight, pressure, seismic inertia load, and seismic anchor motion, as well as was derived indirectly by applying the proposed analysis procedure to the finite element elastic stress analysis result for each load. Third, strain-based fatigue assessment was implemented by applying the strain-based fatigue acceptance criteria in the ASME B&PV Code, Sec. III, Subsec. NB, Article NB-3200 and by using the total strain amplitude values calculated. Last, the total strain amplitude and the fatigue assessment result corresponding to the simplified elastic-plastic analysis were compared with those using the finite element elastic-plastic seismic analysis results. As a result of the comparison, it was identified that the proposed analysis procedure can derive reasonable and conservative results.

용접강구조물에서는 용접비드와 같은 응력집중부가 많이 존재한다. 또한 용접부에서는 용접결함이 발생할 가능성이 많다. 반복적인 피로하중이 응력집중부에 작용하면 응력집중부에서 피로균열이 발생하고, 발생된 균열의 전파에 의해 피로파괴사고를 일으킨다. 따라서 피로파괴사고를 미연에 방지하기 위하여 균열발생수명과 균열전파수명과 같은 피로수명의 파악이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 피로균열전파특성 연구에 사용되는 컴플라이언스를 도출하였다. 이 컴플라이언스는 피로균열의 자동화 측정에 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CT시험편에 대하여 in-house FEM program을 사용하여 컴플라이언스를 계산하였다. 이 계산결과는 저자의 앞선 연구에서 본 프로그램을 사용하여 계산한 J integral의 계산결과와 대비하여 a/W와의 관계를 제시하였다. 그리고 또한 CT시험편 Back Face의 중앙부로부터 위아래 방향의 스트레인 분포에 계산을 실시하였다. 이 분포에서는 중심으로부터 위아래로 갈수록 스트레인이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이상의 계산과정으로부터 균열진전시험의 자동수행을 위한 컴플라이언스를 얻을 수 있었다. 이것으로부터 CT 시험편의 피로균열진전시험의 자동화에 활용이 가능하게 되었다.

현재 우리나라의 콘크리트구조설계기준은 강도설계법에 근간하고 있다. 강도설계법에 의해 휨부재를 설계할 경우, 콘크리트 응력-변형률 관계는 사용하중 상태에서 선형으로 가정하지만 이후 극한한계 상태까지에 대해서는 규정되어 있지 않다. 이로 인해 콘크리트구조설계기준에서는 처짐 및 균열폭 등의 산정에 대해 개별적인 규정을 두고 있다. 그러나 한계상태설계법에 근거한 EC에서는 재료에 대한 응력-변형률 관계를 규정하고 있다. 따라서 재료의 응력-변형률 관계로부터 휨강도 및 처짐 등을 직접 계산할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 휨부재에 대하여 주어진 재료 모델을 바탕으로 평형방정식과 적합조건식을 적용하여 휨모멘트-곡률 관계를 계산하였다. 이로부터 휨강도 및 처짐을 산정하여 현행 콘크리트구조설계기준에 의한 값과 비교하였다. 해석 결과 재료 모델로부터 휨모멘트-곡률 관계를 통해 산정된 처짐은 실험 결과와도 비교적 잘 일치하고, 항복 이후의 처짐 계산도 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

This paper addresses a theoretical study to calculate the amount of the stored energy due to vacancies during high-strain-rate deformation. The study concerns the role of excess vacancies, which can play an important role to increase the amount of stored energy. Molecular dynamics simulation using a 3D model is carried out and the result clearly shows that the excess vacancies are credited to generation of the stored energy.

The molecular cluster model for the homogeneous bubble nucleation was extended to predict the bubble nucleation events in elastomers, polymers and polymer solutions. For the bubble nucleation in elastomers and polymers, the strain energy overcome by a critical bubble was also considered. The calculation results for the number of bubbles nucleated are in good agreement with observed ones.

In sheet metal forming numerical analysis, the strain hardening equation has a significant effect on calculation results, especially in the field of spring-back. This study introduces the Kim-Tuan strain hardening model. This model represents sheet material behavior over the entire strain hardening range. The proposed model is compared to other well known strain hardening models using a series of uniaxial tensile tests. These tests are performed to determine the stress-strain relationship for Al6016-T4, DP980, and CP Ti sheets. In addition, the Kim-Tuan model is used to integrate the CP Ti sheet strain hardening equation in ABAQUS analysis to predict spring-back amount in a bending test. These tests highlight the improved accuracy of the proposed equation in the numerical field. Bending tests to evaluate prediction accuracy are also performed and compared with numerical analysis results.

Effect of the several initial textures such as random texture, rolling texture and cube texture, on the plane strain stretching was studied by interpretation of the finite element method. The calculation of yield locus indicated that the sheet oriented in the cube texture exhibits easy yielding on uniaxial stress state whereas the sheet having either a random or the rolling texture exhibits easy yielding on shear deformation. Upon stretching tests, the thickness strain at the center region contacting the punch was identical regardless of the initial textures while the dependence of the thickness strain on the initial texture was found in the other regions. In general punch loads required or the sheet with an initial cube texture was as expected from calculated yield locus, lower than those for the others.
